8600GT vs GTX 460 1gb

[Guest]

I seem to be getting low fps in Gta IV with my new Gtx 460 card.
I get about 19fps avg ingame with GTX 460 but with 8600GT I was getting exactly the same....
I know Gta IV is a bad PC port but the difference between 8600GT and GTX 460 is BIG!
Even my GPU usage goes to 98% while playing gta IV
My CPU is Intel core 2 Duo e8400 @3.5GHz
Win 7, 32Bit
And my Ram is DDR2 800 1gb x 2

GTA 4 is a game that needs big CPU and RAM.
Even the HIGH END gaming PC are still struggle to handle that game.

Okay, thanks.
I guess I will buy more ram (DDR2 800 2gb x 2)

No need to buy another RAM.
I'm pretty sure you only see this problem with GTA 4 and not with the other games, your specs are good enough to play any games recently (don't count Crysis and GTA 4) with decent setting...
